(Words By Nanci Griffith, Music By James Hooker & Nanci Griffith)
|
I wish that you loved me
|
The way that I love you
|
I wish I had Angels
|
Who sang in my dreams
|
If wishes were changes
|
We'd all live in roses
|
And there wouldn't be children
|
Who cried in their sleep
|
|
He wishes I loved him
|
The way that I love you
|
If wishes were changes
|
I'd dry all his tears
|
If wishes were changes
|
I'd make him my anchor
|
He'd be my Angel
|
Who sang through the years
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
So long to the blue days of wishing
|
If wishes were changes
|
There'd be no goodbyes
|
So long to the heart I have given
|
Cuz wishing won't bring back
|
The love in your eyes
|
|
I wish that I had your
|
Wings of desire
|
I wish I had seen you
|
As I see you now
|
I wouldn't feel sorrow
|
You've left here inside me
|
But, wishing won't change
|
Right from wrong for you now
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Repeat first verse]
